Strategy Formulation
Developing the optimal investment strategy is an integral part of the investment consulting framework. Asset allocation decisions are one of the key factors that influence the long-term returns of investment strategies and portfolios.
Asset Liability Modeling
We use the latest stochastic asset-liability modeling techniques to account for the uncertainty associated with investments and capture a range of outcomes for each asset class.
Investment Policy Development
We create bespoke investment strategies that resonate with clients; that change when circumstances require; and that adapt to new ideas and opportunities. We assist clients in developing investment policy statements that incorporate their unique requirements yet are flexible enough to adapt to the constantly changing investment landscape.
Fund and Product Research
We aim to provide clients with unencumbered advice based on our detailed fundamental research coupled with an in-depth understanding of the domestic and global investment environment.
Our research process is dynamic and efficient. We pride ourselves on our wide coverage of the investment universe and deep knowledge of available opportunities in traditional and alternative asset classes, both locally and offshore.
Portfolio Construction
Our approach to portfolio construction is based on the principles of modern portfolio theory, which attempt to maximize a portfolio’s expected return for a given amount of risk. We believe in diversification, but not at the expense of returns.
Our solutions always incorporate a selection of products and asset managers that collectively lowers portfolio risk whilst aiming to deliver returns that exceed expectations.
Implementation
Our clients benefit from an experienced administration team and rigorous process that ensures accurate, effective and timely implementation of investment decisions as well as the administration of clients underlying investment portfolios.

We have developed a daily unit pricing system to specifically cater to our clients requirements. The platform provides accurate daily pricing of a client’s overall investment portfolio, each life stage portfolio as well as member choice portfolios. The unit pricing reporting system provides information required to support the investment functions and integrates with the client reporting system to provide relevant financial information as required.
Reporting and Compliance
Our reporting is comprehensive, relevant, accurate and timely and adapts to suit our client’s needs.
We ensure that clients’ portfolios comply with all applicable regulations and provide training for trustees when new regulations are promulgated.
